Mateo has always scoffed at the idea of fated mates.

Though his life is fraught with danger, his goals have always been simple: lead his men with an iron fist and assert dominance just enough to avoid drawing too much attention from the police. But after discovering undeniable proof that a certain bartender is meant to be his—and their intense first encounter—he becomes obsessed. The fate of his cartel hangs in the balance, especially when he learns that Kael is pregnant.

Though Kael feels a constant anxiety whenever Mateo is near, he can’t keep lying to himself—especially after discovering he’s pregnant.
